TAX TITLES.
An Important Decision.


The following is an interesting
decision on the subject OF tax titles,
now Ot great interest on account oi
The large purchasers OF State tax
lands. This decision was rendered
by the Supreme Court OF this State
last week, in the case OF l.. r.
Moody VS.. }. NJ. Hoskius, an appeal
from Lincoln county circuit court.
The Supreme Cont reversed and
remanded it. The merits of The
case in substance are as follows:

act by which the State proposed to |

ia December, 1878, in pursuance of
this ACT, and is now held by appel
lee, who denies he right OF the in.
tants to redeem, as provided by the
code OF 1871.
The court says: t'This presents
the question, can the Legislature,

which secnres 10 the owner the
right to redeem the land, take away

in the negative. To admit such a
right IS TO coucede the power to
